Mimicking natural superhydrophobic surfaces and grasping the wetting process: a review on recent progress in preparing superhydrophobic surfaces

A typical superhydrophobic (ultrahydrophobic) surface can repel water droplets from wetting itself, and the contact angle of a water droplet resting on a superhydrophobic surface is greater than 150°, which means extremely low wettability is achievable on superhydrophobic surfaces. Many superhydrophobic surfaces (both manmade and natural) normally exhibit micro- or nanosized roughness as well as hierarchical structure, which somehow can influence the surface's water repellence. As the research into superhydrophobic surfaces goes deeper and wider, it is becoming more important to both academic fields and industrial applications. In this work, the most recent progress in preparing manmade superhydrophobic surfaces through a variety of methodologies, particularly within the past several years, and the fundamental theories of wetting phenomena related to superhydrophobic surfaces are reviewed. We also discuss the perspective of natural superhydrophobic surfaces utilized as mimicking models. The discussion focuses on how the superhydrophobic property is promoted on solid surfaces and emphasizes the effect of surface roughness and structure in particular. This review aims to enable researchers to perceive the inner principles of wetting phenomena and employ suitable methods for creation and modification of superhydrophobic surfaces.     

Droplet manipulation with bioinspired liquid-infused surfaces: A review of recent progress and potential for integrated detection

Point-of-need (PON) diagnostics offer promising methods to gather information relevant to health and safety on-site without the requirement for a fully equipped laboratory. In this review, we discuss how liquid-infused surfaces offer a promising platform to expand the capabilities of PON devices in the areas of biological sample preparation and system integration, providing new methods of controlling the movement of droplets and facilitating detection of biological and chemical compounds contained therein. Modifications to the underlying surface structure can be used to passively control the direction of droplet movement, and the careful selection of responsive solid substrates and/or overlying liquids can allow active control through induced temperature gradients, electrical stimulation, and exposure to magnetic fields. Recent work leveraging other advantages of liquid-infused systems such as ultra-low friction, noncoalescence of droplets, and liquid–liquid patterning has demonstrated the unique ways in which this approach can be used to both enhance current detection methods as well as enable new ones. Together, these recent developments in the manipulation of droplets on liquid-infused surfaces point to their significant potential for furthering the capacity of PON devices for both biological and environmental samples.     

Mineralization and osteoblast behavior of multilayered films on TiO2 nanotube surfaces assembled by the layer-by-layer technique

In this paper, the multilayer films of poly-L-lysine (PLL) and DNA were created on TiO₂ nanotube surfaces using the layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly technique. Chemical compositions of the assembled multilayered films were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Biological properties of the multilayered films were evaluated by the biomimetic mineralization and osteoblast cell culture experiments. The results indicated that PLL and DNA were successfully assembled onto TiO₂ nanotube surfaces by electrostatic attraction. Moreover, the samples of assembled PLL or/and DNA had better bioactivity in inducing HA formation and promoting osteoblast cells adhesion, proliferation and early differentiation.

A short review on recent progress of Bi/semiconductor photocatalysts: The role of Bi metal

Bi/semiconductor photocatalysts have extensively been applied in the production of hydrogen, CO₂ reduction and environmental remediation in recent years. This short review summarizes the role of Bi metal as a plasma photocatalyst and cocatalyst. As a cocatalyst, Bi metal can be electron/hole trappers, charge transfer mediators, or oxygen vacancy coordinators. In addition, the preparation methods of the Bi/semiconductor photocatalysts are also reviewed. Challenges and future research directions related to Bi/semiconductor photocatalysts are discussed and summarized, including the use of advanced characterization techniques to refine the reaction mechanism, the difficulties of preparing Bi single atom catalyst, and the improvement of the reduction ability of Bi-based photocatalysts. This review helps understand the reaction mechanisms of the composite photocatalytic systems containing Bi metal and proposes new perspectives for designing the photocatalysts which can control air pollution via a reductive process.

A review of recent progress in gas phase CO2 reduction and suggestions on future advancement

The 2018 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) details how rapidly Earth's climate is changing due to rising atmospheric CO₂ concentrations. Maintaining a recognizable terrestrial ecosphere over the next eighty years will require, by 2030, a decrease in global CO₂ emissions by 45% from their 2010 levels, with zero net global emissions by 2050. However in 2018, global CO₂ emissions were 112% of 2010 levels. Our interest lies in the use of sunlight to efficiently recycle CO₂ from a waste combustion product, together with water vapor, into hydrocarbon fuels that can be readily stored, transported and used within the current energy infrastructure. While the concept is intriguing until 2019 such a solar fuels technology has been limited by the vanishingly small CO₂-to-fuel photoconversion efficiencies achieved. Recently there has been a significant advance in CO₂ to fuel photoconversion efficiencies with researchers achieving, in an unoptimized system, over a 6 h period, a Joule (sunlight) to Joule (fuel) photoconversion efficiency of 1%. Just as photovoltaics went from niche market devices of low photoconversion efficiency to highly efficient devices enabling a global industry, such a sunlight-to-fuel photoconversion efficiency suggest utility-scale implementation of a sunlight-powered recycled-CO₂ to hydrocarbon fuel technology is realistically achievable in the near future. With an aim towards enabling significant advances in the field, leading to translation of the technology from laboratory to industrial-scale application, we examine what we believe are the key opportunities for achieving significant advances in sunlight-to-fuel photoconversion efficiencies.     

The effect of lanthanide on the degradation of RB in nanocrystalline Ln/TiO2 aqueous solution

A series of Nd³⁺, Pr³⁺, Er³⁺, and Dy³⁺ (0.25–5 at.%) homogeneously doped nanocrystalline titanium dioxides (Ln/TiO₂) were prepared by an easy sol–gel technique, and the roles of lanthanide doping on the photocatalytic activity in the degradation of rhodamine B (RB) in aqueous solution were studied. Both the concentration of the lanthanide dopant and calcination temperature showed significant effect to the photodegradation of RB. The photocatalytic activity of pure titania was drastically decreased when calcination temperature was at 700 °C, while the high photocatalytic activity was still maintained for lanthanide-doped samples. HPLC-MS method was used to study the degradation process, and it is demonstrated that the degradation of RB catalyzed by Ln/TiO₂ was principally go through with a stepwise de-ethylation photochemical process.     

Cell migration rate on poly(epsilon-caprolactone)/poly(ethylene glycol) diblock copolymers and correlation with the material sliding angle

The nanostructure of a biomaterial surface has strong influence on cell behavior. The migration of cells on nanostructured surfaces, however, has not been investigated so far. In this study, we used PCL/PEG diblock copolymers as model surfaces to examine the effect of nanoislands on migration of different cells, including fibroblasts and endothelial cells. The water sliding angle of the substrates was measured. The cell migration rate was examined under a real-time optical microscope. It was found that a greater cell migration rate correlated with the smaller sliding angle of the substrate.     

Speciation and detection of arsenic in aqueous samples: A review of recent progress in non-atomic spectrometric methods

Inorganic arsenic (As) displays extreme toxicity and is a class A human carcinogen. It is of interest to both analytical chemists and environmental scientists. Facile and sensitive determination of As and knowledge of the speciation of forms of As in aqueous samples are vitally important. Nearly every nation has relevant official regulations on permissible limits of drinking water As content. The size of the literature on As is therefore formidable. The heart of this review consists of two tables: one is a compilation of principal official documents and major review articles, including the toxicology and chemistry of As. This includes comprehensive official compendia on As speciation, sample treatment, recommended procedures for the determination of As in specific sample matrices with specific analytical instrument(s), procedures for multi-element (including As) speciation and analysis, and prior comprehensive reviews on arsenic analysis. The second table focuses on the recent literature (2005–2013, the coverage for 2013 is incomplete) on As measurement in aqueous matrices. Recent As speciation and analysis methods based on spectrometric and electrochemical methods, inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry, neutron activation analysis and biosensors are summarized. We have deliberately excluded atomic optical spectrometric techniques (atomic absorption, atomic fluorescence, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry) not because they are not important (in fact the majority of arsenic determinations are possibly carried out by one of these techniques) but because these methods are sufficiently mature and little meaningful innovation has been made beyond what is in the officially prescribed compendia (which are included) and recent reviews are available.
